Fontus (Fons) — the ancient Roman god of fountains and wellheads
A coin issued in 62 BC by Lucius Scribonius Libo (consul 34 BC) depicts this puteal, which he had renovated.

The Scribonian Puteal was dedicated or restored by a member of the Libo family, perhaps the praetor of 204 BC, or the tribune of the people in 149 BC.
